Subject: Re: Question about extended HOTS question

What was the question? The idea is to ask what HOTS the student will
use to answer the question - in other words, look at the challenge and
decide which tool is the best for solving the problem ( answering the
question) . In the answer you (the teacher) should see that the skill
was actually used to answer the specific question you asked.  The
definition your student gave is the definition they learn in a Hebrew
literature course for metaphor. It is not the definition of making
connections. I wouldn't give that any points.
